the color choices in the other boleyn girl were not really all that far off from plausible period choices, what WAS at odds were some of the fabric choices ( the matching "polka-dot" dresses Natalie and Scarlette wore......blue two tone and yello two tone that looked like 70s shower curtains made over into dresses, the weird pseudo germanic sleeves with the weird little panes at elbow and wrist that you don't see documented ANYWHERE as prevalent ENGLISH fashion....or hell even prevalent French fashion since Anne was sort of the embasador of french style to the english court!) the stupid little faux-french-hoods that were really nothign more than slightly overdone headbands and didn't even cover the ears as they should have....the horribly poorly done gabled hoods that should never have been allowed on camera.....yes thre were bad choices aplenty, but overall I didn't see it as much in the colors chosen as the things stated above .....and more abstract thigns like....why the hell was Eric Bana cast as Henry? Henry was really starting his decline in the Anne years, she's pretty much the last to get him in a quasi tolerable state, but even then she got him at the begining of being grossly overweight and far older looking than they let Eric look. Recasting the intentions and motivations of Anny and Mary's mother to be some sort of proto-feminist who was appaled at the way the father threw his daughters into the king's bed was also a great disservice to reality. Their mother by all historical accounts was just as conniving and scheming a Boleyn as any of the men. Elizabeth being taken from court as a baby by Mary at the end...to be raised in a picture perfect countryside?! WTF? Elizabeth was far away from court when Mom was axed....she was in a household of her own with a staff and teachers and nannies, she was nowhere near court and Mary would never have been allowed near her in any case. I can accept that the book made some creative interpurtations to tell a historical story. What bothered me was that the movie producers and writers...in possesion of a story handed to them on a silver platter ready to be made a movie......went and changed it hugely from the book and still used the same title! Anyway...I could rant a good bit more, but those are my basic peeves with the movie....but I think the color choices were overall pretty good.
